Manufactured Stone Countertops: Durable, Non-Porous & Low-Maintenance

Overview of Manufactured Stone Countertops

Manufactured stone countertops combine the appeal of natural materials with performance characteristics that are ideal for engineered materials. Non-porous and stain resistant, they are resistant to scratching and heat while remaining colorfast and textural. Manufactured from quartz aggregates and stabilized by resin, these countertops are able to deliver uniform finishes throughout all applications (kitchen, bathroom, commercial) and contribute a classic yet practical option for long-term use.

Advantages of Manufactured Stone Countertops

Durability and Non-Porosity

These surfaces are easily cleaned and do not retain bacteria, as they are non-porous and resistant to staining; however, quartz composites will give you a durable countertop that will stand up to impact and heat, and will keep their color and present shine in the kitchen.

Consistent Color and Design

Uniformity in engineered materials used create consistent colours and textures producing reliable patterns between slabs & their edges which ultimately results in a cohesive appearance for both the countertop(s) and backsplash(s) matching your design intent perfectly.

Low Maintenance and Hygiene

Low maintenance makes it easy to keep clean with just a mild detergent and a soft cloth. The non-porous surface helps to prevent staining and produces very little chance of developing mold; therefore, with sealed edges your kitchen cleaning duties are shorter and much less difficult.

Versatility in Applications and Edges

A variety of edge profiles, thicknesses, and contemporary colors provide versatility for any design. Undermount sinks and different layouts can be used with engineered stone to integrate seamlessly with appliances while maintaining an elegant and cohesive look.

Manufactured Stone Countertops

Manufactured stone countertops combine both natural and engineered materials to provide you with surfaces that are not only durable, but also visually appealing. Created with mixed quartz aggregate and resin, these surfaces offer a beautiful, non-porous, uniform surface that provides resistance to stains, scratches, and heat. The seamless edges and unlimited profiles make these surfaces ideal for use in kitchens, bathrooms, and commercial environments where elegant, durable surfaces will create a lasting, functional appearance.

F&Q About Manufactured Stone Countertops

What are engineered stone countertops made from?

A countertop made of engineered stone is made by crushing and mixing a naturally occurring stone, such as quartz, with resin and pigment to create a robust, non-porous surface with properties that are resistant to heat, staining, and scratching, as well as providing color and texture.
To keep this material in good condition, wash the item with warm water and a mild soap solution; harsh cleaning products should not be used. Wipe up spills as soon as possible, use cutting boards and trivets, and follow the manufacturer's recommendations for resealing on an as-needed basis to keep your furniture's surface and finish in good condition.
They can withstand normal kitchen heat but avoid contact with hot pans directly. Use trivets/slabs since prolonged exposure to excessive heat can discolor or damage your surface, especially lighter colours.
Many manufacturers have different edge design types that can range from traditional square or beveled to more decorative bevel or ogee shapes. Edge profiles will affect the maintenance of countertops, their cost and visual heft—thus creating opportunities for you to customize your countertop according to your specifically designed home, either in a contemporary or traditional design style.
